Repeatable mechanics mostly.

Upright posture...

Perfect bend at the elbows

Full extension of the arms

Easy, smooth release with the wrists, off the fingertips

The overall form is so fluid and natural.

It's a masterpiece.

I know it's just an eye test but my gawd he looks like a star in the making.

Really? Why?

Looked to me that he pretty much just walked through the entire shoot around vid. Would have been nice if he had exerted himself a little.


Yeah, that was pretty lackluster effort. He barely jump or sprint the whole workout. I like him as a prospect but he's not helping his case of being passive if he have been performing like this with team workout.

I kind of liked his slow steady pace in a workout setting.

He's not that way on the fast break in game situations.

I say work out smarter and keep your focus and reduce your risk of injury. Get your paycheck. Take care of your family.

Get in games and go hog wild on the break.

Not that they have similar style of play or anything like that but they both share that same passive mentality towards the game. I remember it like yesterday when Williams shot up draft boards as a freshman that shot efficiently in FG% and 3P%. I know this comparison is out of left field and doesn't stick from physical appearance but I share the same disdain for McLemore that I felt for Williams as a overrated freshman that has weaknesses beyond the numbers.
